An interesting factoid that you may not be aware of is that since 2009, Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth have called exactly half of all the Giants vs. Cowboys games. Which essentially means that if you’ve watched Sunday Night Football since 2009, you also watched exactly half of all the Giants vs. Cowboys games. What can I say? Sometimes math is very kind to me. Granted, this math probably applies equally to any Cowboys/Eagles, Ravens/Steelers, and Manning/Brady games, with a few Pats/Colts and Seahawks/49ers match-ups thrown in, so what I’m basically saying I guess is that NBC loves ratings and schedules their games accordingly. This incredible deduction by yours truly may or may not have been because I’m a fan of BBC’s Sherlock… but it certainly didn’t hurt.

By the Numbers

5,789 – The amount of times news outlets have announced that Darren McFadden and Joseph Randle will be the lead back in tonight game.

1989 – The year Jason Garrett graduated from Princeton.

1989 – Times that Jason Garrett has called an outside shovel pass on 3rd and long.

2 QB league where i have this roster (max 6 RB and WR). dynasty also, thought i was getting a steal where i grabbed manning (this is even as i told other people in dynasties to sell this dude for 50 cents on last year’s dollar values). 12 teamer. PPR with 6 PT passing TD’s. start 3 WR, 2 RB, 2 flex and those can be TE.
QB Rodgers/P.Manning/Taylor
RB forte/ivory/j.bell/woodhead/k.davis (seems good dynasty piece)
WR – k.allen/edelman/d-jax (yikes)/cruz/m.floyd (ARI, yikes i have to play him next week)/nelson (IR)
TE ertz/julius thomas/donnell
thinking i kinda need a 4th QB with manning looking like it’s about over soon. I’m willing to go with Ertz for awhile here if need be. Any idea how much my bids (i have 99/100 left, won donnell for $1 this week) should be for these (i’ll only go with one, dropping donnell)
oswelier
mallett
sanchez (can probably get this one for free)
g.smith

@Jay: his long throws were completely terrible, and some short ones too. So long term i should save the money that mallett will definitely cost and bid like $4 or so on Oswelier. brand new league and the only thing i have to go off of with bids is most are for 1 or 2, but these cost:
– hoyer for $11 by some twit that drafted glennon first?
– D.will for $20 by some moron who’s best RB #2 is T.Coleman, and after that has nothing resembling a starter, and who doesn’t have L.Bell
-big IDP names like mayo/trevathan/mathieu/d.johnson (we only start 4 IDP of any type) went for 3-5$.
– yet a backup 2 days ago manziel went for free.

Good god Romo has made some junk short passes, and NYG have apparently benched Jennings due to that fumble when he fell into his own blocker’s ass and got striped.

@Jay: at least NYG finally put jennings back in when the game really mattered, but they would’ve been better off just running the ball four times and leaving as little clock as possible on the goal line there, even if this meant they were only winning by 3. Unless i’m misjudging how much time would’ve been melted by doing that.
